Thurgau Nature Museum

Thurgau Nature Museum
Thurgau's nature and its inhabitants at a glance at the Thurgau Nature Museum. Exciting special exhibitions, interactive tours and the museum garden complete the experience and turn a visit into a nature discovery trip.

The Thurgau Nature Museum is located in the old town of Frauenfeld. It takes visitors on a journey of discovery through the nature of the region. Over 1000 plant and animal specimens, from beetles to mighty bears, are exhibited on three floors. A true-to-life replica of a beaver lodge and live ants are just as fascinating as various interactive "grasp" stations, such as petting skins and puzzles. The audio tour "With Monty in the museum" takes young and old museum visitors on an entertaining tour of the exhibition. The Museum of Archaeology Thurgau is also located under the same roof. In summer, the archaeobotanical museum garden with various useful and cultivated plants offers a hands-on experience of nature. After the tour, the museum café invites you to linger. In the foyer, the museum store offers a selected range of books, games, postcards and replicas. The museum and garden are barrier-free.
